Occupancy Phase Commissioning Process
Occupancy is the final test that determines whether or not the commissioning program was successful. This test will demonstrate whether or not the systems actually meet the needs of the occupants, in every respect, throughout all modes of operation. This is a difficult request, and in some respects, it may be asking for too much to expect to be successful.
Nevertheless, if each step of the commissioning process has been carried out correctly, there is a good chance that the facility will be a great success, with very few flaws, if any at all, and without a doubt none that are major.
However, one must be careful not to exaggerate the conditions that are to be anticipated prior to the initial occupancy of the building. This is due to the fact that the occasion of occupancy does not represent a completely clean transition from a finished and commissioned building to a completely occupied facility that offers an ongoing environment conducive to business as usual.
Moving into a facility before it has been fully commissioned can be done for a variety of perfectly reasonable reasons.
Even though there may be some activities related to the construction phase that are still being carried out, the occupancy and operation phases typically start once substantial completion has been reached and the building has been turned over to the owner.
All activities that were left unfinished from the construction phase are finished during the Occupancy and Operations Phase. During this phase, long-term processes for ensuring the building’s performance over time are developed and implemented. These activities are known as ongoing maintenance and performance activities.
Pre- and post-occupancy Phase Commissioning Process is a training program that was developed by Krishnaji Pawar, an experienced commissioning specialist who specializes in the development of sustainable design strategies for green building certification systems (LEED, GSAS, etc.), energy and water conservation, commissioning, environmental impact assessment, and environmental management systems. Pawar is also an expert in the field of environmental management systems.
Learning Objectives
- Learn the pre- and post-occupancy objectives for CxA.
- Learn more about the CxA Team prior to and after occupancy.
- Comprehend CxA activities.
- Learn about commissioning meetings
- Operation and Maintenance (O&M) comprehension
- More information about the Systems Manual

During the Operations Phase, the CxP’s goals include minimizing contractor callbacks, verifying building systems compliance with the most recent Owner’s Project Requirements (OPR) or Current Facility Requirements (CFR), performing seasonal testing, and completing project documentation such as the Systems Manual and Final Commissioning Report. During this phase, the CxP also strives to ensure that the project is ready for occupancy and operations.
